Sending the generals out of the tent, Li Luo stood at the big tent, looking from afar, the military flag stretched away, and the sound was trembling.

Li Luo let out a long breath of turbidity, and when he was looking, King Huai walked out of the tent, and Dou Sheng and the four guards were still following behind King Huai.

King Huai saw Li Luo and said with a smile: "Xuanlou, yes, the arrangement is extremely proper, worthy of being the son of Chengye, this king must say a lot of good things for Xuanlou in front of the emperor, and when I go back tonight, I will write a concerto, Zhong Guo, and send this king back to the royal city overnight." ”

Li Luo smiled and said: "Thank you Uncle Huang, no need, this is only a hundred miles away from the royal city, and the people in the province are telling right and wrong." ”

"What is this, the emperor is at ease with you, who dares to say anything." King Huai paused and said: "But what Xuanlou thinks also makes sense, so let's write the recital later." ”

Li Luo bowed his head and thanked him, and suddenly Huai Wang approached and said with a low smile: "Xuanlou, tell the truth to Uncle Huang, have you fallen in love with the little girl of the Hucha family?" ”

Li Luo smiled bitterly and shook his head, seeing this, King Huai patted Li Luo's shoulder and said, "It's nothing, this county lord of the cicada has a lot of ambition, and the king who sees it is also itching in his heart."

However, Xuanlou, you will inherit the title of prince in the future, this princess candidate has to think carefully, although this little girl is beautiful and moving, but it is not worthy of your prince's title, it's okay to play, don't take it seriously. ”

Li Luo was slightly disgusted, but he still had a faint smile on his face, and he only said that he never had the slightest thought about the winter cicada.

King Huai laughed and said: "Xuanlou, if you want to excuse yourself like this, then Uncle Huang is not welcome, don't blame Uncle Huang for not letting you in the future." After speaking, King Huai laughed loudly, leaving Li Luo, who looked surprised, and gradually faded away in the ridicule and compliment of the guards.

Li Luo stood at the tent door and looked at King Huai's back, and after a long time, he suddenly said, "Mr. Shen, do you regret going to Xifu with me?" ”

It was Shen Xiangdong and Chu Ying'er who stood quietly behind Li Luo, Shen Xiangdong was slightly surprised, and replied: "The old man really thought that he regretted being in the army with such a person just now, but how did General Li know?" ”

Li Luo turned his head to look at Shen Xiangdong, and said with a slight smile: "My heart is thinking, and my body is moving." ”

Shen Xiangdong raised his eyebrows and said: "I didn't expect that General Li's martial arts have reached such a realm, and the old man underestimated it before." ”

Chu Ying'er moved when she heard this, and glanced at Li Luo. Shen Xiangdong's face was solemn, and he said: "A few days ago, I heard a few guards talking about General Li's martial arts. ”

Chu Ying'er said in surprise: "Did I say anything?" "But it's still as cold as ever.

Li Luo smiled and said, "Mr. Shen is really careful. Since he has been waiting for five years, Mr. Shen will not be without this patience. ”

Shen Xiangdong was stunned, and said with a dumb smile: "Yes, the old man wasted five years of time in vain, and it is not in these months." ”

At this time, Ni Qing walked over, saluted Li Luo and the two, and said, "General, my subordinates are going down to prepare dinner, I don't know what the general wants to eat?" ”

Li Luo smiled and said, "Whatever you eat, Mr. Shen and I will eat, Miss Chu will be more meticulous." ”

"No, I'm just like you." It was the first time Ni Qing heard Chu Ying'er speak, and he couldn't help but shudder and took a light step.

Li Luowan smiled, nodded and said, "Then it's all the same." By the way, what about Vuta? ”

"He's already helping his brother in the army cook, and he's probably hungry." Ni Qing said with a smile.

Li Luo and Shen Xiangdong looked at each other and smiled, let Ni Qing go to prepare, the three of them returned to the tent, Li Luo sat down and said, "Mr. Shen, Miss Chu, please take a seat." ”

After the two of them sat down, Li Luo took a sip of tea, looked up and asked, "What does Mr. Shen think about this expedition to the west?" ”

Shen Xiangdong smiled and said, "The old man told the truth, and General Li will not want to hear it." ”

"Haha, Mr. is straightforward, so let's not talk about it."

Shen Xiangdong glanced at Li Luo and said: "It's just that a strong general has been appointed as the deputy marshal in the army, and he doesn't look like a famous person, so General Li is not afraid of disobedience in the army?" ”

"As long as I don't die, it doesn't matter." Li Luo said lightly.

"Isn't it appropriate for this strong general to be the deputy marshal in the army?" Chu Ying'er said strangely.

Shen Xiangdong glanced at Chu Ying'er, and said with a slight smile: "Miss Chu is less in the army, and the rank of the great Gan generals is strict, except for the marshal and general who was specially given by the emperor, the rest of the generals are divided into nine ranks.

The Taibao, the generals and the hussar generals were the first rank, and they could all command an army of more than 500,000 people.

The general of the auxiliary state and the general of the town army are the second rank, which can control an army of more than 200,000.

The second is the champion general, the Huaihua general and the Huaihua general, according to different grades, the army under their jurisdiction ranges from 50,000 to 100,000.

The lower military ranks are General Yunlu, General Guide and General Guide, and the number of troops under their jurisdiction shall not exceed 50,000.

The fourth-class Zhongwu generals, Zhuangwu generals and Huaihua Zhonglang generals, can lead an army of less than 30,000.

Some of the next General Xuanwei, General Mingwei and General Guide Zhonglang can bring more than 10,000 or so.

The fifth-rank generals such as General Dingyuan, General Ning Yuan, Ranger General and Guerrilla General can only lead more than 1,000 people, or serve in the army, and cannot lead the army alone.

The captains of the remaining battalions are also divided into four ranks.

There are at least three or four military positions in each grade, and most of them are more than dozens, and there are positive and subordinate points, all of which are divided into upper and lower grades, such as this Yunlu general Liu Ce is from the third grade, and the strong military general Dou Sheng is only a positive four grade, which is lower than the loyal general Hu Chajing. ”

Chu Ying'er smacked her tongue secretly, she didn't expect Da Gan's military position to be so complicated, and then asked, "Is the general's military rank considered high?" ”

"Haha, it's very high, the first grade and the second grade are only positive, there is no difference between up and down, General Li is the general of the auxiliary country, and he is already the second grade. I don't know if there have been any new hussar generals in recent years, if not, General Li will be second to Taibao, Di Jie, the envoy to the west, and several veterans of the DPRK and China in Dagan. ”

Chu Ying'er turned her head to look at Li Luo, Li Luo smiled slightly and said, "Yes, the deputy commander of the Dingbei Army is a hussar general. ”

Shen Xiangdong sighed and said: "Although the grade is strict, there has never been a shortage of people in the Dagan army who have led more than 10,000 troops to be crowned as the general of the auxiliary state and the general of the town army, and there are also generals like General Liu who have led more than 50,000 troops, so they have only been awarded the post of General Yunlu." The soldiers fought a hundred battles, not as much as the flattery before the court. "It seems that this Li Luo's general is also a little unworthy of his name.

While a few people were sighing, Ni Qing walked into the tent and reported that dinner was ready, and Shen Xiangdong and Chu Ying'er returned to their respective tents.

Ni Bai brought dinner, Li Luo saw that the delicacies of the mountains and seas were complete, Li Luo sighed slightly, and said: "Don't make so much in the future, just have one or two, and there are too many meals, take out half of them, and you will share them." ”

Ni Bai scratched his head and replied: "General, you also need these things to eat in the prison tent, so you can't miss the general." ”

"Okay, I'll do as I say in the future, save a little bit if you can, and let him go whatever the prison army wants."

"Yes, my subordinates obey." After speaking, Ni Qing came out of the big tent of the Chinese army.

After dinner, Li Luo walked around the camp, the Youzhou Department was better, and when they saw Li Luo coming, they all got up and saluted, but the Muzhou rangers saw Li Luo and saluted casually, and some simply pretended not to see it, without any respect.

If someone saluted, Li Luo bowed his head and saluted, and if he pretended not to see it, Li Luo was not annoyed.

The departments in the camp have begun to move in an orderly manner, except for the Youzhou department, the rest of the departments are noisy, especially the headquarters of the second general Dou Qi, which is noisy and chaotic.

In the early morning of the next day, the various departments had rearranged their military formations according to the assembly of the army, which was much faster than when they had just marched out of Zhuocheng, the army was in order, and the military orders were relatively smooth, not as scattered as at the beginning.

After marching like this for more than a month, the army of the Western Expedition passed through Gongzhou and marched into Quanzhou.

Li Luo's own army stopped riding the carriage from the second day, left the carriage to Chu Ying'er, and walked in the army on horseback with Huwei.

Li Luo's riding skills were so good that all the generals were a little surprised, the first few days were fine, but on the third day, Li Luo felt that his whole body was falling apart, and the pain was unbearable.

Ni Qing dissuaded Li Luo from going back to the carriage to rest, but Li Luo just refused, and he could survive it.

On the fourth day, Li Luo was about to get on the horse, but he saw that Chu Ying'er also took out a horse, and followed Li Luo, Li Luo was stunned, since he arrived in the army, except for the Chinese Military Council, Chu Ying'er was rarely in front of people, and he didn't want to come out today to breathe.

Chu Ying'er has a slender posture and a black veil on her face, as soon as she got on the horse, she attracted a round of applause, but Chu Ying'er was cold, but whenever someone applauded, they all looked at it coldly, and froze the applause of others.

Li Luo smiled, and went with Chu Ying'er's temperament, as soon as the army started, Chu Ying'er rushed up from the side and invited Li Luo to compete in horse racing, Li Luo's eyes flashed, and he readily agreed, and brought a few tiger guards and the Chinese army guards assigned by the army, and went out of the army together, riding horses and running towards the front army.

Sure enough, Chu Ying'er was not far from the military formation, so she slowed down her war horse, and ran in front of Li Luo without hurrying, Li Luo followed Chu Ying'er's side, so a few back and forth, Chu Ying'er stopped the horse, looked back, Li Luo thought about it, Chu Ying'er immediately said goodbye, and returned to the camp.

Li Luo himself ran back and forth outside the formation non-stop, and only returned to the camp at dinner time, and when he saw Chu Ying'er, he thanked him happily, Chu Ying'er hummed plainly, and he couldn't hear the joy and anger, but he didn't have the coldness of the past.

After such a few days, Li Luo can already compete with the Muzhou rangers on horses, even if the continuous march without touching the ground, the Muzhou rangers and the Youzhou tribes are quite admired by Li Luo, as if the Muzhou rangers, there is no contempt at the beginning.

After marching for more than a month, Li Luo read books in his spare time, or followed Liu Ce of the Chinese army to see how the Youzhou troops marched and set up camp, and how the army chose the marching route.

Where to camp, whether you need to rely on the back of the mountain, the wind direction and wind power, the distance from the river bank, etc., one by one against the art of war, the army is against each other, the mountains are in the valley, the life is high, the battle is not climbed, and the army of the mountain here; The water must be far away from the water, the guest comes from the water, do not welcome it in the water, make the half-crossing and hit the advantage, those who want to fight, do not attach to the water and welcome the guest, depending on the high place of life, there is no water flow, the army on the water here; If the army is in the repulsion, it will be carried back by the water and grass, and the army of the rebuke Ze here; The flat land is easy, the right back is high, the front is dead and the latter is born, and the army of the flat land is here.

If there is something you don't understand, sometimes you will ask Liu Ce a question or two, usually go back to the account to ask Shen Xiangdong, Shen Xiangdong through the ancient and the modern, marching and fighting more insightful, Li Luo admires it very much, if the opinion is extraordinary, it is still above Liu Ce, and it does live up to the name of the hidden dragon.
